I watched this with my 10 year old last night. i have said this before but my son watched TCW pretty much right from the start and saw all the movies at a young age. He loved them then, but it has been so much fun lately as he is really into it, has his own thoughts and ideas.

We watched TCW again last spring/summer and it was awesome that my son understood a lot more. As a lead up to The Last Jedi we re-watched all of the movies again.

We have watched every episode of Rebels together and since it was March Break I let him stay up last night and we watched the last there episodes live (ended at 10:30 here in Ontario).

We were totally expecting death and destruction and for only Hera and Chopper to survive. As the time slot was running out, I thought for sure that we'd see angry Vader just come in a wipe everyone out. We were so happy with the shock of a happy ending, I mean looking back, it's Disney, should have expected it I guess, but man, this is much more satisfying.

I am so looking forward to the new series. I suspect it will be a mix of new characters with Ashoka and Sabine having their arc trying to find Ezra. I am sure that they will tease Ezra as Snoke, but I am unsure if tey will go that route. My guess is though that we learn a lot about The Knights of Ren (Wren?) and maybe Sabine and Ashoka are involved in that? Maybe they all team up and Kylo is the eventual destruction of them all?

I am so happy with the amount of Star Wars we are given now. I know some people fear oversaturation with this franchise and Marvel, but with the audience so engaged and the franchises having so many ways to spin off into other areas of their respective galaxies, I don't think it is possible. At least for the hard core fans.
